this explains a lot

My husband isn't going to be very happy that I shared this, but it's too cute not to, and explains a lot. The photo came from a tiny album his dear "Farm Grandma", as she was lovingly referred to, kept of him. Doesn't surprise me, they were very close. Later on as a young adult, he kept his horses at her farm. Guess he was a natural, even at a young age.

My Mother-in-law showed me the album last week, I borrowed it to scan (he hee). I vaguely remember Grandma showing it to me, some time after she spilled "the beans" that he had owned horses (said with that smile of hers).

Leah, I do think he knows he was fortunate to grow up on a farm - but I know what you mean, us city girls only wish we had grown up on one.

Kacy, I know can you believe that honest smile?! Little kids tell all.

The other part of "this explains a lot" are those 'lil cowboy boots. He still lives in boots (not typical daily wear in WI)!

Oh my, he is almost doing the splits to stay on that wide back!
